haha I just didn't want to have to type it every time I started the terminal.

1) switch off the monitor .
2) put the clear command as the last line of .bashrc .
3) put exec 2>/dev/null as first line into .bashrc .

Since you already know about clear , it is clear to me that you know of the hidden .bashrc file in the $HOME directory .

Short backview :
Puppy-4 series had gxine or gxineshell as defaultmediaplayer ,
with Lupu-5 it became gnome-mplayer using mplayer .
Some rare Puppies (racy/wary) might have gmplayer as defaultmediaplayer .

No regular Puppy i know of ever had vlc as defaultmediaplayer included .
